PHP .htaccess RewriteRule allow multiple combination - php

I have a problem with my .htaccess file.
In my .htaccess rules if I put this:
RewriteRule ^post/([^/]*)$ /the_post.php?id=$1 [L]
I'll be able to navigate url like this:
http://www.example.com/post/12
But if I try:
http://www.example.com/post/12/
or
http://www.example.com/post/12/something-else-here
The page was not founded.
What is the right way to allow any possible combinations of url?
http://www.example.com/post/12
http://www.example.com/post/12/
http://www.example.com/post/12/something-else-here
Thanks for your time!


With your current rule :
RewriteRule ^post/([^/]*)$ /the_post.php?id=$1 [L]
You can't have any / after post/ in your url. [^/]* means any character except /.
You can try this rule :
RewriteRule ^post/([0-9]+) /the_post.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]


You can use this rule to replace your rule:
RewriteRule ^post/([^/]+)(/[^/]*)?/?$ the_post.php?id=$1 [L,NC,QSA]

Redirect old dynamic url to a new pattern using htaccess

A normal link of my site may look like this
mydomain.com/categorylist/8/Special_Single_Songs.html
I'm planning to change the URL pattern to something like
mydomain.com/categorylist/8-Special-Single-Songs.html
How can I redirect the old URL pattern to the new one using .htaccess redirect rule?
My .htaccess Rewrite rule look like this
RewriteRule ^categorylist/([0-9]+)/([0-9a-z]+)/([0-9]+)/(.*)\.html$ /index.php?pid=$1&sort=$2&page=$3 [L]

Try this code
RewriteRule ^categorylist/([0-9]+)/([0-9a-z]+)/([0-9]+)/(.*).html$ /index.php?pid=$1&sort=$2&page=$3 [L]
RewriteRule ^categorylist/([0-9]+)\-([0-9a-z]+)/([0-9]+)/(.*).html$ /index.php?pid=$1&sort=$2&page=$3 [L]

try this & put it on top after RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^categorylist([^_]*)_([^_]*_.*).html$ $1-$2 [L,NE]
RewriteRule ^categorylist([^_]*)_([^_]*).html$ /$1-$2 [L,NE,R=301]
note : big number of underscores can be a problem

how to rewrite single URL using .htaccess

I need to rewrite only 1 specific URL, to display to visitors specific content: I tried something like, this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} example.com/test/2_5/page.html
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ example.com/tt.html [R,L]
I need to rewrite all requests to:
http://example.com/test/2_5/page.html
to
http://example.com/tt.html
how to do this?
thanks,

Redirect /test/2_5/page.html /tt.html
Ok, mod_rewrite
RewriteRule ^/test/2_5/page.html /tt.html [L]
Remove first / if using .htaccess in the site's root folder, not the .conf file. And, typically, the final url should be the full one, with http:// and domain, but this one will work too. If you want to do everything by the rules then
RewriteRule ^/test/2_5/page\.html$ http://example.com/tt.html [L]

create SEO friendly URL using rewriterule

I try to rewrite my SEO URLs to some real GET requests, to handle in my PHP file.
I want to have these 2 cases to work:
mysite.com/company-profile -> index.php?action=company-profile
mysite.com/faq/howcanijoin -> index.php?action=faq&anchor=howcanijoin
I got the first case to work using the rule:
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9-]+)$ index.php?action=$1
For the second I tried also. I put this rule before the previous one:
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)$ index.php?action=$1&anchor=$2
But it's not working. Any suggestions? If I understand correctly inside each parenthesis goes variables $1, $2 etc?

Do this
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)$ /index.php?action=$1&anchor=$2

This?
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)$ index.php?action=$1&anchor=$2 [QSA,L]

mod rewrite, htaccess and gettign the values

the incoming URL
domain.com/12/3
should be re-written to
domain.com/?w=12&h=3
htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2,2})/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ index.php?w=$1&h=$2 [QSA]
the php
<?php
echo $_GET['h'];
?>
Result
404 page
I've tried using htaccess to change the result of the url and then retrieve the value from the URL, could someone help me out?

Maybe you need to escape - like:
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2,2})/([a-zA-Z0-9_\-]+)$ index.php?w=$1&h=$2 [QSA]
PS. I hope the above URL /12/3 is just for example because your regex accepts only a-z

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^[a-z]{2,2})/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /index.php?w=$1&h=$2 [QSA]
Essentially, I'm pretty sure you need a / in front of index.php
I like to use this generator for my mod-rewrite rules.

Try changing your rewriterule to the following:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9]{2})/([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /index.php?w=$1&h=$2 [QSA]
Your example has two digits as the first parts of the path, which won't be matched by [a-z].

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)$ index.php?w=$1&h=$2 [QSA]
The above sorted it. Thanks for the replies

.htaccess ModReWrite help

I am having some trouble with my ReWrite code. Please note that the .htaccess file is in the subdomain folder (...public_html/subdomain/ )
I am simply trying to rewrite a page request:
http://subdomain.mysite.com/home
http://subdomain.mysite.com/index.php?page=home
My .htaccess file looks like this...
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/([A-Za-z0-9\-\_])$ /index.php?page=$1
Does anything jump out at you?

Your current rule probably works for urls one character long (after the slash)!
Add a + to signify one or more characters, or a * for zero or more
Try
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/([A-Za-z0-9\-\_]*)$ /index.php?page=$1

If you want to use the rules in a .htaccess file, you need to strip the contextual per-directory path prefix from the RewriteRule pattern. If the .htaccess file is located in the document root /, you need to strip the leading /.
Additionally you need to quantify the character set. Otherwise it would only describe one character.
So try this rule:
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9-_]+)$ index.php?page=$1

I think
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)$ /index.php?page=$1 [L]
is ok ;)
